Abstract. The purpose of this study was to attempt to classify physically disabled schizophrenic patients from the aspect of the physical therapy outcome, and to utilize this classification for the establishment of guidelines and therapeutic strategies in these patients. A cluster analysis was performed to evaluating patient's psychosis according to an original psychosis assessment scale. The final motor function was assumed as the physical therapy outcome, and putative influencing factors were obtained. Herein we show that three factors, namely age, initial motor function, and decreasing activity, are important to estimate the physical therapy outcomes in these patients. Considering these factors, together with an assessment of the psychosis of the patients, we have classified physically disabled schizophrenic patients into three types to achieve the best therapeutic outcome of their physical therapy.

The purpose of this study was to summarize the approaches to behavior modification for exercise from the viewpoint of preventive medicine. Articles were searched according to the particular field of preventive medicine, i.e., primary prevention, secondary prevention, tertiary prevention, and other fields of prevention. In the field of primary prevention for elderly people living at home, many fall prevention programs were found to have been carried out. In these studies, various programs were found to be effective if the exercise proved to be sufficient. Although some approaches were observed to be based on the productive aging theory and social capital, the number of such studies was small. In the field of secondary prevention, illness and functional disorders are prevented from becoming worse. It is therefore important for each individual to exercise by himself/herself and also acquire sufficient self-monitoring skills. Social capital is useful for learning good exercise habits. In the field of tertiary prevention, although exercise therapy is effective for improving physical functions and preventing disease recurrence in patients with chronic disease, some patients nevertheless find it difficult to continue such an exercise therapy. The approaches to behavior modification were extremely effective for patients with chronic disease. In other fields of preventive medicine, daily exercises such stair climbing are effective methods for reducing the risk of chronic disease and such a behavior modification may lead to a considerable public health gain. In the future, further studies with a many lines of evidence should be performed, and approaches based on behavioral science should be established.
